it wasnt a civil war.
Human desire causes this suffering.
Without suffering, there is no compassion. Sometimes you can learn from suffering
There were no human rights during the Civil War, as the concept only came about after the Second World War. However, the founding fathers of the US were quite keen on freedoms and "civil" rights, which are strictly speaking different to human rights.
Buddhism grew as a response to human suffering, emphasizing the Four Noble Truths, which identify the nature of suffering and its causes. It teaches that suffering arises from attachment and desire, and offers the Eightfold Path as a means to attain enlightenment and liberation from suffering. Through practices like meditation and mindfulness, Buddhism encourages individuals to cultivate awareness and compassion, ultimately seeking to alleviate suffering for themselves and others. Thus, its growth reflects a profound engagement with the human condition and the quest for inner peace.
States Rights and slavery (human rights) are two causes.
They did not like the idea of human suffering. They want peace and happiness
In India the sages and priests often used to say that the desire is the root cause of all sufferings. Human beings are ruled by spirits but humans must learn to control and rule the spirits. Spirits possess people according to the mental state of the human beings and keep them in the same state until they are rejected and replaced by another. This is an all time phenomena occurring in all humans. Human beings are always under the influence of spirits. Certain situations and circumstances cause the possession of certain type of spirits. Often thinking and talking about bad subjects or bad imaginations even for fun can take serious turns on one who think and talk. Often thinking and talking about good subjects with good imaginations can create positive effects in your life. Your favorable thoughts and beliefs can bring favorable spirits by your side. The more you think the more would be the possession of that spirit. All spirits (good and bad) have the possessing and dominating nature. Only because of this nature a drunkard dies as a drunkard and a scholar reaches a top position by studying more and more. They can take you to the extent of sacrifice or suicide. All of your activities, talks and even thoughts determine what kind of spirits you will have for your life. Only these spirits are the reason for the good and bad happening in your life. These spirits determine your destiny from your daily activities, talks and thoughts too. Spirits are separate elements. A human being doesn't have a spiritual body. A human being during his/her life time is living with many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. They are knowledge, skills, feelings, emotions, interests and everything. Further there will be always some spirits on behalf of your parents, friends, relatives and other people. These spirits are your consciousnesses and memories. Even thoughts are not your own. For example, when you want to take a decision on a subject, one after another the spirits think and you just listen, choose or reject the ideas which they transmit to your mind through your brain in the form of thoughts. Brain is a device used by your spirits to control your body. A mind is a combination/formation of many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. A mind is just a computer's mind. After the destruction of a computer completely you will not get its mind. The same is the case with the human beings. Soul is nothing but an energy needed for the functionality of a body. It is not a spirit or anything else. A body's functionality is based on the auto mechanism. After death all spirits which accompanied a person quit and go to different places searching new bodies. No one lives after death in any form and there is no afterlife. All human beings are just robots made of flesh and bones and toys of the spirits for their games. You must not leave your mind in its own way. If you do, the spirit will take full control of your mind, then controlling it is not so easy. First of all you must think and believe that it's not you. Then you must command that spirit both mentally and orally to go. Whenever you are possessed by that thought you must divert your mind at once towards some other subject and stay in it for a while and then continue your duty. This is a mental exercise. You may also bring at once an opposite feeling through your imagination. For example if the depression is about your future then you may think, imagine and believe that you are going to live a healthy, wealthy and happy life in future. You must continue this exercise for few days. While doing this exercise you are creating an opposing spirit, i.e., a positive force. Soon this new spirit gets stronger and eliminates the negative force. Within a few days you will be alright.
Hinduism believes in rebirth of souls and rebirth can be avoided only through faith.Every hindu does not like to have rebirth as he is not certain whether he would be born a man or animal in the next birth. Human suffering is the result of his actions in the previous birth.
